Summit Snow Report cont. Gloves: With as harsh weather patterns as we experience in Montana, and the below freezing ski days, hybrid gloves are the way to go. These, half leather, half mesh gloves are more durable and keep your fingers faraway from frost-bite. The prices are definitely steep but worth the extra $30. Average price not on sale: $90 Thermals: I am a firm believer in thermal compression tights. I use them for frigid runs, skiing, sledding, even comfortably hidden under jeans. Thermals are a great investment especially when found on the sale rack! I newly discovered Columbia Omni- heat reflective thermals, which are on sale at Bob Ward’s. The new technology reflects your body heat, while still providing a thin, moveable and moisture wicking material. Average price not on sale: $50
